Ok, I'm in boys. Put 2 units on WKU vs Vandy, 2 units on the under ND/Texas. I don't see the offensive inept Longhorns scoring much against the strong Irish D. I'm thinking hard about Utah, Minnesota +17 and Ohio.

edit: Just did 3 team parlay on utah-5, Minnesota +17 and Ohio -7.

I had a good start last night winning my 3 team parlay and WKU -1.5 holding off Vandy. I am thinking about taking Washington tonight +13.

Wen't 2-2 so I take it you're being sarcastic. Share some picks if you would like.

I thought u went 3-1. Lost Tulane and what other one. At my book u would have won 3 I think.Yea I see it, WKU. I won that, got it at 1 1/2, so I just assumed u won since I got it.

I too went 2-2. Hit Duke and WKU but lost Ok St and TCU.

Tonight I really like the under of Washington/Boise, 55 1/2 I believe and I'm going Baylor. Only betting Baylor because SMU was so terrible last year and I just can't see them ever stopping Baylor's O. Really feel like the only thing keeping Baylor from an easy cover is turnovers.

I refuse to get sucked in this year. My plan at the start of every season is to play 1 really good game that I've worked several angles. Sometimes, I'll add a 2nd on Saturday when a full slate is available. And I do pretty good. Then I let this thread and my greed get the better of me and I start doing 3 or 4 extr games that I've only kinda glanced at. And I lose them.

So my best play today is....

Tulsa -5

I also am likely to add tamu at -3, but I'm not sure of it just yet. Those are my only 2 games.

Anyone with a lean on the OSU/VT game? Laying the points seem too square but VT has been quite inept on the offensive side of the ball for some time now.

Leaning VT, haven't pulled the trigger yet. Blacksburg is a tough place to play in primetime and VT returns quite a bit. That plus the Ohio St. suspensions, I really see this being a tight game. Of course Ohio St. offense could always go off, but I'm not seeing it. Vegas needs VT tonight and Vegas doesn't like to get hammered.

I wonder how Vegas did on the weekend, I do agree with your Blacksburg/Primetime angle. May just stay away from this one.

A few of the power rating systems started the season well. Dokter hit at over 62% so far. That number will come down, but it's a good start. Dokter also went 8-0 on home dogs so far and picks Va Tech. I know it's way too early to put much stock in such small sample sizes, but that's why I'm sticking with 1/2 units for now. For anyone new to the thread, I'm getting the power rating system data for close to 70 systems from thepredictiontracker.com. He has it in spreadsheet format so that you can data mine it.
